Knopf, she has worked with Anne Rice, Christopher Plummer, Billy Dee Williams, George Stevens, Wendy Wasserstein, Arthur Laurents, Lauren Bacall, Eve Babitz, Rose Styron, Amy Klobuchar, Peter Beard, Mary Ellen Mark, Jill Ciment, Sapphire, Jane Alexander, Jacques d'Amboise, Erin Brockovitch, and many many more. Her "A Life of Barbara Stanwyck: Steel-True 1907-1940" was published to great acclaim with the second volume coming soon. Wilson has served on many boards and was appointed by President Clinton to the US Commission on Civil Rights.
